Here is my story, born in 1965 in Tuscaloosa Alabama. I was given up to the foster care system at three months. I never knew my real parents growing up. I suffered from severe ADHD as a child and still do as an adult. I lived in 8 different foster homes at some point or another during my childhood. Most had abuse involved but that is another story in itself. I was in special education as a child. Learning how to learn was very difficult for me. I moved to a place call Alabama boys ranch in 1978 until 1984 in which I joined the navy. I spent 23 years in the military and achieved the rank of chief petty officer, but at a large cost. Drinking played a large role in my life because it made me feel like I was part of the normal. I started a long battle with drinking that lasted my entire life. I also started smoking as another addiction began to take over my life. I was married for 12 years to a wonderful woman that put up with me and all that came with it. We divorced after 12 years of marriage. Still dealing with the drinking I was determined to fight for my dreams and start all over again. I am now married to a doctor, have three girls which each have the same problems that I had as a child. I am now a man :-) because I refused to give into the power of weakness. I never looked for a reason to stop trying but instead always seem to find a way to continue to push through my problems and bad situations that I put myself in. At age 40 I finally got information on my family. I'm biracial and my father is unknown as stated on my birth certificate. My mom was white and she gave birth to me in Bryce%u2019s mental hospital. I am writing this short story not for any another reason than to let others know they can achieve and live their dreams if they believe in their heart that they can. I also will say that I have always had a personal relationship with the lord my entire life and there are many things that have happened to me that I cannot explain. I want everyone to know that the lord is real; dreams are real if you can see them and have the guts to go after them like I have done. This webpage was designed to show others one thing and that is how they can achieve like I have. If the lord blesses you then you must share the blessing with others. What I had to learn from the internet cost me thousands of dollars and I made many others rich with my contributions. This is how I have made it and I hope it helps you all also.
